Personalized care for your dog or cat - Heath
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Heath
“I had no hesitation leaving my mutt with Tina. She’s well prepared and loves all doggies. She kept in touch and let me know how things were going. I would gladly use her help again. Rover employees were friendly and helpful, the robo texts were a little excessive (duplicates.). So all in all good first experience! Thanks”
“We needed to find last minute boarding and Scott was amazing! Ηe provided updates and photos of our dog! Highly recommend and will definitely be using him again for future vacations!”
“Cristi was absolutely wonderful! She sent pictures and my pups were very well taken care of. It was such a relief knowing that there was someone giving them love and attention while we were away for the weekend. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future! Thank you so much Cristi! Wally and Donut had the best time!”
“Ashliegh was wonderful with our puppy. It had been awhile since I had used Rover since our previous dog had passed 4 years ago but we could not have had a better experience. Ashliegh was great with communication and so kind and sweet. 🥰”
“This was our first time using Rover and was a little cautious. Our go to has always been formal boarding but we hated that it seemed so sterile and basically your dog lays by themselves in a room. Bill and Mary were great! He sent numerous pics to keep us updated on Paisley. She had so much fun we were worried she wouldn’t want to come home! It was a great experience and we plan on hiring Bill again when we go out of town.”
“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”
“Exceptional sitter ! Elizabeth went above and beyond in her care for Tucker ! Very professional and did a great job communicating. Would definitely recommend !”
“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”
“Karen was wonderful! She had my dog for 11 days and kept me updated so well. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone and will definitely be taking my dog to her again!”
“GREAT care for our pups as always (return client). Highly recommend Dana and her family, always feel like they treat our dogs as if they were their own. Vacations are now stress free!”
“Sally was amazing! She allowed us to come to her home beforehand for a brief introduction. She was accommodating when I informed her of Pluto’s needs, pick up and drop off ran smoothly, and she kept me up to date while I traveled! Will definitely be booking with Sally again.”
“Samantha was absolutely incredible with our pup! We went away for the week and didn’t worry a single time, knowing he was receiving impeccable care with her. She sent frequent updates throughout each day, and treated our doggie as one of her own. He got to run around, play, and had the best time at her house with her pups. I truly cannot recommend her enough!!!”
“Kyla was amazing! She instantly made me comfortable upon arrival as she was very welcoming and embraced Milo . Milo does have anxiety but she made him feel right at home in which I appreciate. The communication was great as well! I received updates and pictures . I will be booking again in the future for any needs as well as grooming . Milo came back with big smiles . I’d say my sweet boy enjoyed his stay with Kyla and her pup ❤️ I will be booking again! Thank you again Kyla! (Milo’s new Auntie) he loves it there! THANK YOU , THANK YOU THANK YOU!”
“Darah took wonderful care of Mysti while I was out of town. Daily updates and photos were sent to me and I could see how content Mysti felt in her home. Will definitely book pet visits with Darah again for future trips trips away from home.”
“Mary was absolutely amazing with Layla! She communicated consistently and thoughtfully, sending pictures at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla usually goes on a bit of a hunger strike when I leave, but she was so comfortable with Mary that she ate every single meal. That alone says everything! Layla looked genuinely happy in every photo and was clearly very well cared for. Mary also shared how much she loved spending time with Layla, and it truly sounds like they both had a great time together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using Mary’s services again in the future.”

“Bethani has really gone above and beyond what I was expecting! She brought the trash cans in from the road and sent updates on my animals that live outside, both things not asked for but appreciated. I trust her completely and my cat loves her!”
“She is great! Keeps you updated while you are away with pictures and little notes, and she even took our trash out for us one of the days since we were gone when the trash came! We will definitely continue to have Darah come be with our little guy when we have trips in the future😊”
“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”
“Alicia was an excellent sitter. She took great Care of my 2 cats. One needed medication 2x daily and she not only met but exceeded expectations. I would definitely refer her to take care of your pets.”
“Britton was wonderful! She took great care of the animals, and went the extra mile to make our timid cat comfortable. Her communication was fantastic as well, I would highly recommend her!”
About: If your cat is shy and you are afraid they may not eat or get attention while you are gone, I am all about being besties at their pace. We may not be besties by the time I leave, but he/she will know I want to be their friend so the next time, we will be besties. I LOVE cats. And I am willing to work hard to make sure they are happy while you are gone.
About: I have a passion for fitness and a love for all pets!! Will gladly walk any and all dogs! I am a professional anthlete and I love being outdoors. Dog walking is the perfect way to combine everything I enjoy. No need to worry about being too busy to give your dog the exercise and outdoors time they deserve because your pets will be in great hands with me! They will get the exercise they need and I’ll even do my best to tire out those little pups that have more energy than you can handle! I have an upbeat pup at home so I know exactly what it’s like. Very willing and able to work around your needs and schedules. I’m currently in the off season so I have plenty of time to tend to your pups! I love exercise and being outdoors so enough activity is no problem. I have a friendly dog and plenty of access to green space. I’m home a lot and very attentive to dogs care and needs
About: I have owned dogs and cats all of my life. They are the center of our home. We walk them daily and they are allowed on furniture. Hi. My name is Donna and I live in Columbus. I spend a lot of time with my own pups and cats. I will love on your dog as if it were my own. I currently work from home and can provide daily walks or check-ins. I will greet your pet with lots of love. I can fill their food and water bowls when necessary before I leave.
About: I grew up with cats, and they were all very special to me. I currently own a black kitty named Moonlight, who has brought me much joy for the last six years. In owning cats, I have no fear of cleaning litter, giving them their preferred scratches, and providing medication.
“We had a fantastic experience with Vanessa! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated the thoughtful updates and adorable photos of our cats each day. She spent quality time playing with them, gave them treats, and it was clear they felt comfortable and happy-our Bella even sat on her lap, which says a lot! She also went above and beyond by washing their dishes and keeping their water bowls full and fresh. Everything was clean and tidy when we returned. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again. Thank you!”
About: Hello! I’m an animal lover through and through. I share my life with fish, dogs, cats, and a horse, so caring for animals is part of my everyday routine. I worked as an equine veterinary technician for 3 years and have 10+ years of experience in animal care. I know every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether that’s an energetic walk, a game of fetch, or extra snuggles on the couch, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I am currently working part time in the mornings as I work a regular job from 3pm - 11pm. I am looking for add some more love and cuddles to my week finding lasting pet and people friendships. I am currently not offering boarding at my home. I am able to care for your pets as you wish at your home within my allotted time before my evening job.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Heath
“My two dogs and I have had great experiences with Tina, she takes excellent care of them. The first few daycare visits were only my dog who has high anxiety and separation issues. During these trips I received regular messages from Tina and would speak to her at the end and felt very comfortable with how the dog was doing there. My dogs seems to enjoy going to Tina’s for day care and gets excited when we arrive at her home. I recently decided to try bringing my second who is older for day care, he has some health issues that limit his mobility and he is mostly blind. Tina went out of her way to accommodate his needs and kept me updated on how he was doing during his stay. I felt comforted by how much care she has shown both of my dogs, how willing she has been to communicate with us about their stays, and how much she talks to us about them when we pick them up and drop them off.”
About: I am 24, I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals since I was a baby and have grown up with 20+ dog breeds, I’ve raised and trained Puppies with my mom for years. I have a huge heart for all animals and don’t have any allergies, I do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 ball python and a decent sized backyard. I give all animals plenty of love, attention and playtime, there is forest and field parks around me so if your dog is good on a leash I can take them there to run around and play, my neighborhood is quiet and calm all the time other than dogs barking few times throughout the day, they will love it here. I’m an animal nerd and know how to care for almost any animal including reptiles, amphibians and bugs! I currently have no job due to my agoraphobia making it very hard to work and have a steady income, I am available all day every day unless I have plans I have a fenced in yard but live in a small house, all of my animals are people and pet friendly so they will not show any aggression towards you or your pets
About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
“Cassie was amazing!! This was Tilly's first pet sitter experience and Cassie made everything great!! Highly recommend Cassie!! She will be my go to if I ever need a pet sitter again!! 10 STARS!!!!”
About: I have lived on a farm since I was born until college, and my parents still live on one. I love all animals and always willing to help out. I don’t mind if they are wild puppies or older dogs we will get though the walk or stay together! I only work 2 days a week, so my schedule is pretty open! I have a very large back yard not fenced in, but I can take out all dogs on a leash.I have one other dog that your dog can play with or we can play inside to make sure everyone stays safe! I plan on walking them throughout the neighborhood. If I go to a clients house whatever the clients wants me to do to best care for their dog I will.
About: I have had animals my entire life so there is never a time where I wasn't around one. I also trust them more than people so therefore, they trust me more than most as well. I am a stay at home mom with 2 under 2 so I am always home and most likely available but I will probably have my children when I do any services on this app. I have 4 cats and 4 dogs of all colors and a variety of personalities so I am used to chaos. I have a fenced yard, pools and toys everywhere for my dogs to run around. My cats have their own room with all the beds and scratching posts they desire. I feed them on a timed schedule but have full water bowls all around the house for them to drink at their leisure all day. I have furniture set up specifically so they can look out windows and there are no rules when it comes to where they can sleep.
About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.
“Ashleigh and family took care of our 12 week old Cairn Terrier puppy while we took a day trip to visit family out of town. She seemed instantly at ease with him, her daughters were obviously very good with dogs and we had little doubt our pup would enjoy his "camp" experience. He did and even made friends with their pug. We had been looking for a sitter during the week and gladly would go with Ashleigh if it was easier on the commute. Zero concerns and I highly recommend trying them out.”
“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”
“Jodi was so awesome with my sweet girl. She loved her through a long weekend away from me. Something she's not use to. She sent pictures showing how well she was doing and it made me feel much better to see how well she was doing!! I highly recommend Jodi, she treated Luna as if she was one of her own dogs. I'm forever grateful for that and for putting my mind at ease on how she was doing. You will never regret using Jodi, she's AMAZING!!”
“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”
“Kyla is AMAZING! My husband and I were in need of a sitter last minute and Kyla was quick to respond and super great at updates and communication. Our dog has been shedding a lot lately and Kyla took the time to groom her which was so kind! I can’t recommend Kyla enough for your dog sitting needs 🐶!”
“Samantha was amazing! She took our pup in for doggy daycare last minute, was so kind and caring, and took fantastic care of our pup! She sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and was so flexible and accommodating to meet our pup’s needs and provide him with the best experience. He loved running and playing with her dogs and came home so happy! Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be using her daycare services again!”
About: UPDATES! Due to my Husbands career change, I will be the main person that will be caring for your animals. He will help if needed or if any dogs come to our home. My husband and I have a lifelong experience with dogs. We both grew up with dogs. I had a Golden Retriever and he had a Labrador Retriever. We have experience with all different types of pups! We are a team and work together to love and care for every dog we care for. We have dedicated ourselves to learning all about dogs, their social behaviors, and how to keep them happy and healthy. My goal is to one day become a professional dog trainer. I guarantee after a day with me and my pup your dog will be happy and tired. :) UPDATE! Our schedule has temporarily changed due to my husband getting a new job. We will still be available for boarding but drop ins and walking will have to be limited to weekday evenings and anytime during the weekend. This will be the case until summer! Someday I would love to care for dogs as my full time job but it’s going to take some time. 🥰 We have a fully fenced in yard with a privacy fence. We have a very energetic and friendly Golden Retriever to keep your dog company. We have 2 kids who are big animal lovers who will love and play with the dogs all day! I am trustworthy and will accommodate your dogs schedule and needs whether i have your dog for the day, walking them, or just dropping in to check on them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, and ducks for family and friends when they needed someone. I’m very comfortable doing longer periods of time if needed, I love playing with animals on top of just the necessities! I’m currently working part-time and I’m able to schedule around certain times as needed. In the fall I start college again with plenty of break times! I prefer to stay where the animals are used to. I communicate constantly while I’m watching someone else animals by sending pictures, videos, and regular updates.
“Camryn is a wonderful pet sitter for our doggo and two cats. She really seems to love animals and it shows in her interactions and how she prioritizes their needs in her busy life. We were very happy with her active communication and felt much better leaving town knowing that our pets were in her care. Would not hesitate to recommend her services to others!”

“Darah last week helped me when I was caught in between some very unfortunate events. She worked SO well with my dog and was very much so excellent to work with. I would suggest Darah to anybody!”
“Kayla is great. She’s very responsive and gives lots of feedback after each visit. I have a newly adopted dog that has some behavior issues and I wanted someone with some experience and Kayla has been able to handle anything that comes up. The dogs know when she is supposed to come and are so excited when she shows up!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats all of my life. They are the center of our home. We walk them daily and they are allowed on furniture. Hi. My name is Donna and I live in Columbus. I spend a lot of time with my own pups and cats. I will love on your dog as if it were my own. I currently work from home and can provide daily walks or check-ins.

About: I own a husky, american terrier mix, and a cat. I often care for family member pets as well. Whether they are big, small, feline, or canine, I have been around them all and understand how unique each animal can be. I have an open schedule so I can spend as much time with your pet as you like. I am available on weekends for drop-ins, or walks. I understand that each pet and their home deserve the utmost respect. Your needs as well as your pet's are very important to me which is why I will see every request is met.
About: - 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. - Experienced with large dog breeds, including German Shepherds and Labrador Retrievers. - Longtime cat owner with extensive knowledge of feline behavior, feeding, and daily care needs. - Six years volunteering with the Animal Protective League, supporting animal care and shelter operations. - Fostered two litters of puppies and one litter of kittens, providing nurturing care during early development. - Comfortable administering routine care, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing attentive companionship. - Strong understanding of animal behavior through practical experience. - Dependable, patient, and committed to creating a safe, loving environment for every pet in my care. I currently have a part-time internship with the Licking County Sheriff’s Office so my schedule is very flexible and open. I will make daily check-ins and spend ample time with your pets to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I will always make sure to leave your home in the same, if not better condition than when I left it. The comfort of your beloved pets is my top priority and a big part of that is the environment they reside in. I never want my clients to worry about messes or cleaning when they come home.
About: I have 15 years of pet care experience. Growing up my grandmother always needed help with her cat and dog, whether it was feeding them or walking Spuds! I have experience in bathing both cats and dogs and I personally give my cats a quarterly wash-down. I am comfortable with administering topical ointments or giving shots if needed. I assisted many times with my local TNR program and have great experience with cats specifically. I am currently a part-time student and working an internship that is based on the EST time zone. So I am up early and ready to go at all hours. I am work from home and my classes are also online so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I will always animal proof homes regardless if it’s mine or not. Pets having access to fresh water is always a must. Caring for pets is a case by case as all of them have their own personalities! If they need quiet, that’s cool or if they’re more rowdy I can get down with that too!
About: (My boyfriend’s little sister is 11 and heading into middle school, during this summer break she wants to earn some money so I agreed to let her tag along with me and care for pets. She has a huge heart for all kinds of animals and has a golden retriever of her own she loves to take on walks) Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced pet lover who enjoys working with both dogs and cats equally. I grew up with multiple pets, including having three dogs at once, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I also have experience caring for a dog with cancer, including giving medication and providing extra attention and comfort. Because of that, I understand how important patience, gentleness, and trust are when it comes to pet care—especially for animals that may need a little extra support. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, from small to large, as well as puppies and kittens. I truly enjoy spending time with animals—whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just relaxing with them. One of my favorite things is seeing their personalities come out, from their funny habits to their curiosity about everything around them. I currently have an orange cat named Poseidon, so I’m very familiar with daily care routines and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m always reliable, attentive, and communicative. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure you feel completely comfortable while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule because I currently do not have a job, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. I am able to give the pet constant attention, regular feeding times, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and any additional care they may need. Since my schedule is flexible, I can quickly respond to the pet’s needs and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I pride myself on creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and comfort levels to make sure they feel secure and at ease at all times. I always follow any specific instructions closely, keep a clean and pet-friendly space, and take extra care with things like doors, leashes, and feeding routines to ensure safety. I approach every animal with patience, kindness, and respect, allowing them to warm up at their own pace and building trust naturally. My goal is to make your pet feel just as comfortable and cared for with me as they do with you.
About: i enjoy spending time with dogs and playing with them. i bath both of my dogs and i take them on walks to get some energy out I work a full time job but I get a break from 12:30-3 and i’m off work at 5:30 everyday during the week. I don’t work on the weekends therefore i’m usually free during the weekend. my house doesn’t have a fence so for our puppy we use a lead that goes into the ground that way he’s able to run and not be on a leash.
About: I genuinely love caring for animals—it’s something I truly enjoy! With 3 years of experience, I’ve provided dependable, compassionate care for both dogs and cats of all ages. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, mellow senior pets, and everything in between. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication, or overnight stays, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekends, which are fully open for walks. On weekdays, I’m available after 5:30 PM for special cases or evening care. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that meets their needs! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in the client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I closely follow any instructions provided by the owner. I also give regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected while they’re away.
About: With two years of experience caring for dogs and other animals, including volunteer work at a local dog shelter, I offer reliable and compassionate pet care services. As a pet owner myself (two cats, three dogs, fish), I understand the importance of a safe and nurturing environment. I am also comfortable caring for fish, reptiles, and plants, and can provide light housekeeping. Currently, I am pursuing a degree in veterinary medicine, further enhancing my knowledge and skills in animal care. i am open availability and update my calendar regularly! i can do drop ins multiple times a day, and walks multiple times a day ! i have 3 friendly dogs in my home and 3 cats, right now since i do not live alone it isn’t in my range to keep animals in my home
About: I have grown up around many different types of animals my whole life, shy, reactive, overly friendly. I am very patient when it comes to animals. My goal whenever I hangout with an animal is to make sure they know they can trust me. I have to take care of my three dogs at my house, with help from my family but during the day Im the one who is usually home. I love to take my dog for a walk or even a run sometimes. I care for my pets and any pets I get to watch like they're my own. I will play with them, or hangout with them for a long time (they're the best company).
About: My name is Jordan Harris and I am an animal lover hoping to be able to make a difference in you and your pets life! I have worked with animals in my daily career for the last 10 years, beginning as a kennel technician in a large boarding facility, working in doggy daycare, grooming, and basic obedience dog training. I was promoted to General Manager in 2017 and in 2021 I left my job at the boarding facility to pursue a career in Veterinary Medicine. I currently am a Clinic Office Manager at a veterinary clinic where we care for cats, dogs, and exotic pets. After working in boarding for so many years, I understand that not all pets do well in a boarding facility. I am hoping to offer families and their pets the peace of mind and comfort for your pet however I can, in your home. I currently work full time, 4 days a week. I am free on the weekends and would be more than happy to discuss my weekly availability. 🙂 I do have a 5 year old daughter that may come along from time to time; however only if necessary. If your pet doesn’t do well with children please let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. I am comfortable dispensing medication/strict diets, and handling dogs with special needs such as behavioral, medical, etc. Tell me how your pet prefers their attention and exercise and we will do it their way!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and currently have two dogs of my own experience-wise, including raising one from a puppy. My first dog was a rescue who was a beloved member of my family until she passed away in 2024, which taught me a lot about patience, routine care, and caring for a dog through all stages of life. I also have a senior dog who is 12 years old, so I’m familiar with the extra attention and care older pets sometimes need. While I haven’t owned a cat myself, I’ve spent time around cats while visiting friends and family and am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine since I have dogs of my own. Each day I’m used to feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on them, so caring for animals fits naturally into my schedule. Because I work part-time as a swim instructor in the mornings and have lighter hours outside of that, I have plenty of flexibility during the day and evening to care for other pets. On a weekly basis, I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and parts of the weekend, and I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule to meet a pet’s needs and routine. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for pets. In my own home, I care for my dogs by keeping a clean, calm, and safe environment. I make sure they always have fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and regular exercise. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I prioritize keeping them comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home through drop-ins or walks, I respect each pet’s routine and follow all instructions carefully. I always make sure doors are secure, pets are safe before leaving, and I provide updates so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

“Ashliegh was wonderful with our puppy. It had been awhile since I had used Rover since our previous dog had passed 4 years ago but we could not have had a better experience. Ashliegh was great with communication and so kind and sweet. 🥰”
“This was our first time using Rover and was a little cautious. Our go to has always been formal boarding but we hated that it seemed so sterile and basically your dog lays by themselves in a room. Bill and Mary were great! He sent numerous pics to keep us updated on Paisley. She had so much fun we were worried she wouldn’t want to come home! It was a great experience and we plan on hiring Bill again when we go out of town.”
“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”
“Exceptional sitter ! Elizabeth went above and beyond in her care for Tucker ! Very professional and did a great job communicating. Would definitely recommend !”
“Karen was wonderful! She had my dog for 11 days and kept me updated so well. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone and will definitely be taking my dog to her again!”
“GREAT care for our pups as always (return client). Highly recommend Dana and her family, always feel like they treat our dogs as if they were their own. Vacations are now stress free!”
“Sally was amazing! She allowed us to come to her home beforehand for a brief introduction. She was accommodating when I informed her of Pluto’s needs, pick up and drop off ran smoothly, and she kept me up to date while I traveled! Will definitely be booking with Sally again.”
“Samantha was absolutely incredible with our pup! We went away for the week and didn’t worry a single time, knowing he was receiving impeccable care with her. She sent frequent updates throughout each day, and treated our doggie as one of her own. He got to run around, play, and had the best time at her house with her pups. I truly cannot recommend her enough!!!”
“Kyla was amazing! She instantly made me comfortable upon arrival as she was very welcoming and embraced Milo . Milo does have anxiety but she made him feel right at home in which I appreciate. The communication was great as well! I received updates and pictures . I will be booking again in the future for any needs as well as grooming . Milo came back with big smiles . I’d say my sweet boy enjoyed his stay with Kyla and her pup ❤️ I will be booking again! Thank you again Kyla! (Milo’s new Auntie) he loves it there! THANK YOU , THANK YOU THANK YOU!”
“Darah took wonderful care of Mysti while I was out of town. Daily updates and photos were sent to me and I could see how content Mysti felt in her home. Will definitely book pet visits with Darah again for future trips trips away from home.”
“Mary was absolutely amazing with Layla! She communicated consistently and thoughtfully, sending pictures at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla usually goes on a bit of a hunger strike when I leave, but she was so comfortable with Mary that she ate every single meal. That alone says everything! Layla looked genuinely happy in every photo and was clearly very well cared for. Mary also shared how much she loved spending time with Layla, and it truly sounds like they both had a great time together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using Mary’s services again in the future.”
“Alexandria did an excellent job with my dog, Pluto! She was very attentive and made me feel very comfortable keeping him! I absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”
“Tamisha was wonderful. We had a family emergency and we had to fly out and she came through. She was so helpful and Eden had a great time. She kept us updated and sent photos. I would highly recommend Tamisha.”
“12/10! She and her husband took in my zoo last minute, was super communicative and sensitive to any needs the had. My Newfie and English bully absolutely adores her golden and was even able to have a little birthday treat for her golden while there🤩 She is my go to now, 100%. Thanks for everything!”
“Our girl, Gracie stayed with Leslie for almost two weeks while we were away for vacation. I was apprehensive to leave her with someone that long, but my concerns immediately faded as soon as I met Leslie. She is the ultimate animal lover!!! She treated Gracie as if she was her own pet. Leslie sent texts, photos, and emails almost every other day. I whole-heartedly recommend Leslie to any dog owner and will definitely re-book with her in the future.”
“Will and Bibiana were awesome. Responsive, kind, and sent photos while we were apart from our dog. Luna was clearly relaxed and well attended to in their home.”
